Abstract

The study describes the development of serfdom, the Dózsa Uprising, which was caused by social conflicts and the limitation of serfdom and their legal consequences. A significant milestone was the Urbárium of 1767, followed by two other decisive boundary stones: the Revolution of 1848 and the Austro-Hungarian Compromise of 1867. The latter was also significant in the way that it paved the way for the Austro-Hungarian Empire (alongside Japan) to enter the First World War, in parallel with and in a similar way to the Meiji Restoration, which began in Japan in 1867-1868. The study outlines the relations between serfdom and the peasantry, not only from a legal-historical, but also from an economic and social-historical perspective.
